INFRASTRUCTURE

Ghent Gateway

Highways: Zwijnaarde has direct access to the E17 and E40, two of the most important highways in Belgium. The E17 connects with Antwerp and the French border, while the E40 provides connections to Brussels, Liège, and further into Germany. The French border is approximately 60 km from the logistics hub.

Railways: Proximity to major railway hubs offers effi cient and environmentally friendly transport options, connecting the logistics hub to the European hinterland.

Airports: Brussels International Airport is easily accessible, located about 60 km away.

Ports: The proximity to the Port of Ghent, part of North Sea Port, strengthens Zwijnaarde’s position as a logistics hub. The port is a key node for maritime transport, with extensive facilities for transshipment and storage of goods.

The logistics hub is situated on Eilandje Zwijnaarde. The accessibility of the site is extremely favorable. Via the Jozef Schellstraat, the logistics hub is easily reachable.
